i laid back down on my back for a while, repeating a mantra of something like "i will remember im dreaming" while visualizing being on the beach, hearing the ocean, and draggin my hands through the sand. i have a hard time getting back to sleep. i rub my jaws and try to keep my focus on dreaming. i turn over and start listening in to the tinnitus in my ears. flashes of light and images start to form.

i am standing behind the couch i am sleeping on. i also have a mixed memory of being in a bathroom looking in a mirror. these are hypnogogic images and very unclear. i can feel that my hands and parts of my body can move away from the other parts, sort of like im swaying in the wind. i remember NOT doing a RC from the previous dream so i look at my hand. ive only got two fingers. sweet! i keep pushing forward and waving my hands but the couch is in the way. i do a forward roll and i am free! i am on the floor in front of the couch like i have just flung myself over it. i believe i have just forcefully separated myself from the hypnogogic imagery into a 3 dimensional dream.

my vision is the classic fuzzy gray and purple. i have on a sleep mask IRL, and it seems i am sort of peeking under the corner of it but i dont want to mess with it just yet, in case i move my physical body and wake myself up. any<that shouldnt really make a difference.> i start rubbing the carpet and my vision improves. it is my living room pretty much as it is IRL. i crawl forward to where some of my rocks are and i pick up a hercamer diamond ive had since i was a boy and start rubbing it. i recall someone on the forum talking about picking up some dirt and i decide to keep it with me and continue to rub it.

i walk to the door and open it. things are fuzzy but somehow i see. i walk down my steps outside and to the sidewalk. i decide im going to ride a skateboard, i imagine myself dragging it along the ground and kicking off and then im skating! i ride down the set of steps and into the parking lot. at first i only do tricks i know and have done IRL. i ollie, then i do a kickflip, then i barely pull off a 180 backside kickflip. then i start doing more complicated things (360 flips) that i cant do IRL. i have on black shoes and it feels kind of overcast (as it is IRL.)

i decide im going to fly now, as ive had a goal to fly higher and faster. i can usually only get about 20 ft in the air. the skateboard has already dissappeared. i lift up my hands and start raising into the air. at first i am just slowly floating up, then i start swimming and pulling myself because im not going fast enough. <i dont have to do this. i can just fly!> once i realize this i rocket way up into the air. my vision goes dim. i hold my hands out in front of my face until they come into focus. i realize i am up in the clouds and i cannot even see the ground. i am a little freaked out by this and start to fall.

at first i am alarmed by the fall, then i think <if royer can jump out of plane, i can at least do this> and i let myself feel all the sensations of the falling, the weightlessness, the wind and clouds rushing by me. it is very realistic and feels exhilerating! my vision fades again and i repeat the hand peering trick. as i do this i see an island fade into sparkling, colorful view, like a swipe cut on video starting at the center and moving to the top and bottom at the same time as i move my hands away from my eyes. it is a vivid green and brown tiny island with a single huge stone building on it.



(i had been trying to incubate a dream of going to the beach and i also wanted to try the TOTM by sitting on the beach and summoning a treasure chest so i guess this was as close as i got, heh. ive also been imagining this elaborate castle / dream home thing that sits overlooking the ocean and this actually could have been my first glimpse of it.)

i am falling fast and i try to level out so i dont hit the water but i do. i splash and land in the water, looking at the apt building. i feel this tremendous force sucking me down. at first i panic and hold my breath. then i relax, knowing no harm can come to me and i breath in the water like its air and make my way towards the island. one of my goals was to talk to a DC so i decide to go and see who i can find.

there is a small rectangular entrance at the base of the gray stone wall that the island sits on. its tiny, or at least it looks tiny. it does something weird to my vision like its in a small window surrounded by black. i go in, but i barely fit in the opening. it seems like im in a cardboard box. i stretch and push on the walls until the area is a little better fit for me, but it's still pretty tight. there are several characters there, and i know they are some kind of covert operations team preparing for a mission. its like a secret tunnel beneath the island. but they are like lego characters and it all seems very "8-bit" so to speak. i remember that i am supposed to talk to a DC and i ask them what they represent. they reply as one "your need for adventure!" which i find very amusing.



then i hear noise IRL and i sense that my gf has come out into the living room to find me asleep on the couch (i had told her i would be getting up and taking the G+C and probably end up on the couch.) suddenly i am sitting in a cardboard box in my living room (there is one there IRL that has a new baby stroller in it) that is all done up like my daughter has been playing in it. i hear my gf moving around and talking to me so i get out of the box and walk around behind the couch.

she is sitting on top of me and she has pulled her shirt up and is putting her breast in my mouth. i smack her on the ass, but she cant seem to feel it. i try to make my body tell her that im dreaming, but i just hear a muffled sound "out there." finally i get right up next to her ear and whisper "im out here." she falls off the couch in surprise, but laughs a bit, knowing about the LD. i decide to get back into my body and take her up on the breast offer. i direct my focus to my body and wake up, facedown, on the couch, no gf, and certainly no breasts in my mouth.
